You can set the following
preferences in the NURBS category of the Preferences window.
NURBS Display
- New curves, New surfaces
-
Select
whether you want Edit Points, Hulls, CVs, or origins on new curves
or new surfaces:
NoteThese options work
only on new curves or surfaces, not existing items.
- Surface divisions
-
Controls the smoothness
of an object in a view. It also affects the rendering of newly created surfaces.
Enter a value or use the slider. The range is from 0 to 64. The
higher the value, the smoother the surface.
- Curve divisions
-
Controls the smoothness
of a curve in a view. Enter a value or use the slider. The range
is from 1 to 128. The higher the value, the smoother the curve.
- Shaded divisions
-
Controls how smooth your
smooth-shaded object looks. Enter a value or use the slider. The range
is from 1 to 64. The higher the value, the smoother the smooth-shaded
object.
- Surface precision
-
Controls
how NURBS primitives are displayed. When you create or move NURBS
objects far from the origin or when you scale NURBS objects to extreme
sizes, you may experience jitter during animation, problems selecting objects,
or problems with an object’s display. Setting Surface
Precision to High can
help these situations.
